Threat
Stack, the leader in cloud infrastructure security, today announced
it has acquired application security vendor Bluefyre, to deliver full
stack security observability from the control plane to the application
layer. With the addition of Bluefyre, Threat Stack will empower
developers to build secure, cloud-native applications that can detect
and prevent threats at runtime, including applications running on
Kubernetes.

"We're thrilled to welcome the Bluefyre team to Threat Stack.
Observability of the applicationlayer has been a key part of Threat
Stack's strategic vision, and Bluefyre's capabilities provide the ideal
complement to Threat Stack's industry-leading cloud-optimized intrusion
detection system," said Brian M. Ahern, CEO, Threat Stack. "They have
built an extremely powerful runtime application security product that
will drastically increase the ability of Threat Stack customers to
reduce risk within cloud infrastructure."

"As organizations increasingly develop applications in the cloud,
runtime monitoring and detection throughout the development and
operations lifecycle is critical," said Tim Buntel, co-founder and CEO,
Bluefyre. "Bluefyre's ability to protect applications augments Threat
Stack's cloud infrastructure security observability to provide DevOps
and Security teams with a single tool that provides in-depth visibility
and actionable intelligence."

Buntel and his Bluefyre co-founder Sabin Thomas will join Threat Stack
as Vice President of Application Security (News - Alert) Products and Vice President of
Application Security Engineering. They will be based in Threat Stack's
Boston, Massachusetts headquarters along with the rest of the Bluefyre
team. Threat Stack is planning to release the integrated Bluefyre
capabilities as part of the Threat Stack Cloud
Security Platform and Cloud
SecOps Program in early 2019.
